Paper Number: SPE-203908-MS
... generating 2.5D PEBI grids. Effectiveness of the method to construct acute PEBI grids honoring geological objects and complex wells is demonstrated by meshing representative reservoir geometries. Numerical results are presented that verify consistency of the two-point flux on the resulting boundary-aligned...

... and well index values capture the radial effects and avoid the numerical pseudo-skin typically observed with 2.5D grids. As illustrated with various cases, such approach accurately and consistently simulates wells of complex geometries for all resolutions. The outcome is a new method for generating 3D...
